Okay, so nothing that the Pups has done since the millennium has really grabbed me -- at all. But, they were my gateway band and I will ALWAYS pay attention whenever the guys put out something new.
As always, I am taking a wait and see with this one. Hopefully, I won't be too disappointed this time.

Like I said...
Plus, that cover art is fucking terrible.

Still, I'm gonna give it a listen.

I've seen a lot of album covers get derided as "My First Photoshop", but this one may have them all beat. Holy drop shadows and swirl effect.

I would typically check out a new Meat Puppets release but I have extremely low standards that the album art didn't meet.

Why bother with album art when people are only going to download it anyway?

I'll buy it on vinyl if it's half decent.
